GEAR SPINDLES IntroductionFor more than 60 years, Renold Ajax has been an industry leader in the design and manufacture of custom gear spindles. Our success in the primary metals industry can be attributed to design innovations like continuous oil lubrication, roll-end piloting and compound tooth curvature.
The company has invested heavily in its Westfield, NY, plant with state-of-the-art CNC machinery, continuing research and development, and the latest solid modelling engineering techniques to ensure that customers receive an optimised spindle design for their application.
Design PrinciplesFour basic ‘core’ design characteristics balance the cost of the initial investment with the subsequent ‘through-life’ costs attributed to maintenance and spares.
Type 1 is normally used in smaller mills or those with restrictions on spindle diameter. It features a high torque capacity with maximised pitch diameter. This option is the most economical to purchase but is more costly to maintain long term because ring-gear replacement involves the entire adaptor.
Type 2 provides the same maximum pitch diameter and torque capacity benefits as the Type 1, but utilises a replaceable ring-gear sleeve to reduce maintenance costs.
Type 3 offers the lowest maintenance costs through replaceable ring-gear inserts, but at the expense of torque capacity due to the reduced pitch diameter. The higher initial cost is offset by the economical replacement of the gear elements.
Type 4 combines the benefits of a Type 1 at the roll-end, with Type 3 at the pinion-end and offers a compromise between initial costs and spares. They are typically used when the minimum work roll diameter is much smaller than the pinion box shaft centres.
Features and Benefits• Cross-flow lubrication ports in the shaft improve
accessibility, ensure the thrust buttons are greased and flushes debris from the gear mesh.
• One piece spring plunger eliminates the risk of joint failure associated with a bolted connection.

• Tight fitting splines preclude any relative motion and resulting wear.
• O-ring seals exist at every spline connection to prevent moisture ingress and any consequent spline corrosion.
• Vented roll-end bore reduces the possibility of clogging and aids roll changing.
• External hub retention enables a quick visual inspection of the connection, and ensures no damaged fasteners can enter the gear mesh.
• Zero-scrub thrust buttons are located on the gearing centre-line, resulting in a pivoting action with no scrubbing. Wear is reduced and no radial force reaction generated.
• Jacking and puller holes allow quick and easy disassembly and handling of all components.
• Tooth tip piloted gearing maintains concentricity under no-load conditions, ensuring equal load sharing when the mill bites. As the maximum load per tooth is reduced the overall capacity of the gear mesh is increased.
OptionsRenold Ajax can engineer a number of custom options to extend wear life, reduce maintenance requirements and often improve product quality. These can include:
Continuous Oil Lubrication: Under high compressive stress, the sliding contact of the teeth flanks generates heat that is normally emitted through the OD of the spindle. In order to address the shortcomings of grease lubrication, Renold has developed a circulating oil lubrication system that effectively removes this heat with the additional benefit of flushing debris out of the gear mesh.
Roll-end piloting: To reduce the action in the adaptor bore without affecting the roll change process. The system helps minimise bore wear, reduce vibration and chatter, and improves strip quality. The pilot rings are inexpensive and easily replaced ensuring the adaptor fit can be economically maintained.
Compound curvature: On the tooth flanks maximises the working area of the tooth, reduces stresses and vastly extends wear life without affecting high misalignment angles during roll change.
